Our Shared Hope-Third Sunday of Advent

April 7, 2019December 16, 2018

To begin our service of Lessons and Carols, Pastor Dawn introduces us to the prophet Isaiah, and offers cues for listening to particular themes in the 7 lessons.

*Correction. In her reflection, Pastor Dawn calls Lessons and Carols an ancient custom. It is, in fact, only 100 years old.

Our Shared Hope-Second Sunday of Advent

April 7, 2019December 9, 2018

Our series on our relationship with our Jewish neighbours continues with one we do not normally call a Hebrew prophet-John the Baptist. Special thanks to Peter Haresnape for his thoughtful sermon sending us out to the margins to join the prophets’ call.

Our Shared Hope-First Sunday of Advent

April 7, 2019December 2, 2018

For Advent and Christmas, Pastor Dawn has begun a series, “Our Shared Hope”. Using the Hebrew texts for Advent, we are exploring the hopes we hold in common with our Jewish siblings. This morning, Pastor Dawn introduces the series and expands on the prophet Jeremiah.

Focus text: Jeremiah 33:14-16
